I bought a 60's or 70's spy-girl burgundy&nbsp;leather coat for $8.98 at Goodwill two weeks ago. &nbsp;It is in beautiful condition, but has that 'deodorized' smell that some GW clothes have. &nbsp; &nbsp;I went over it a good deal with leather moisturizer, but in reality, it could use a little more softening up. &nbsp; I may try this but I am still thinking about it.... &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/has-anyone-tried-washing-their-leather-leggings#post-1186387 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 15:13:04 +0000 April 1186387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A fascinating, detailed account of washing a leather jacket: &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://editbydesign.com/2012/09/06/how-to-machine-wash-a-leather-jacket/">http://editbydesign.com/2012/0.....er-jacket/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/has-anyone-tried-washing-their-leather-leggings#post-1186378 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:55:28 +0000 leopardluxe 1186378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wash my All Saints and J Brand&nbsp;lambskin&nbsp;ones all the time --and I put them in the dryer to shrink them back up a bit.</p> <p>If the finish is garment washed leather this won't hurt them and will actually make them softer over time. If it's a polished/finished/shiny leather it won't ruin them but it will dull the finish to look a bit more aged.</p> <p>Hope this info helps! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/has-anyone-tried-washing-their-leather-leggings#post-1186338 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:27:09 +0000 Glory 1186338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not sure but I do remember Rae washed a leather jacket and someone else a leather purse and the result was excellent. I used to have jeans with a leather strip down the side and I washed those with no mishaps. It could be risky though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/has-anyone-tried-washing-their-leather-leggings#post-1186329 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:20:22 +0000 ironkurtin 1186329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="http://www.stylecaster.com/how-to-wash-leather-pants/" rel="nofollow">http://www.stylecaster.com/how.....her-pants/</a></p> <p><a href="http://byrnenotice.com/you-know-those-leather-pants-you-have-you-can-wash-them-in-the-machine/" rel="nofollow">http://byrnenotice.com/you-kno.....e-machine/</a></p> <p>Both of these indicate you can get them sopping wet, and even throw them into the drier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/has-anyone-tried-washing-their-leather-leggings#post-1186328 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:20:08 +0000 rosi 1186328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is it real leather?? If it is, pelase laundry. Real leather only have to be washed by who knows well. Faux leather can be washed by hands, with neutral soap. And let it dry on plane surface. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/has-anyone-tried-washing-their-leather-leggings#post-1186320 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 14:11:39 +0000 April 1186320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I believe they're that group over there -- the ones that are huddled and weeping. &nbsp;;)</p> <p>Leather leggings would be way too anxiety-provoking for me so I don't have an answer. &nbsp;Washing them&nbsp;does seem like a risky business, though. &nbsp;</p> <p>And leather cleaning -- pfft. &nbsp;It just cost me $45 to find out that the musty scent on my Marc jacket is not removable via that method. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/has-anyone-tried-washing-their-leather-leggings#post-1186310 Thu, 06 Mar 2014 13:44:17 +0000 ironkurtin 1186310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I scored a pair of Vince leather leggings off eBay. Research indicates they can be washed like anything else but reports conflict. Advice from a one who owns lamb skin leggings appreciated! </p>
